First to address one reviewers claim that the movie is not Public Domain.
At least in the US, it IS in the public domain.
The film was published in 1974. Works published between 1925 and 1977 required a copyright notice to benefit from copyright protection.
The producers failed to include that notice in this film thereby depriving this film of copyright ... at least in the US.
That being said. This is an amazing little gem of a movie.

Thanks for the great quality!
As I'm familiar with the original short story "Who Goes There", I wasn't really blown away. But I like the movie's atmosphere and the believable performances. Anyway, if you're wondering what a crossover between The Thing [1982] and Murder on the Orient Express [1974] looks like, give it a go ...

I love any movie that pairs Christopher Lee with Peter Cushing, but unfortunately, this is not a public domain movie.

"You work with the devil" : mean we are all in that train for the end of mankind. A great movie i still have in memory. The memory of our being is not going through our ADN cells, but by our brain and conscience (remember the prophetie).

Were you people raised in a cave or something? They made many MORE films together in NON Dracula roles than they ever did otherwise.
The Skull, The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Gorgon, (this film) and Dr. Terror's House of Horrors all come to mind and I'm sure I could think up several others if I wished.
This, however, is a pretty good film...too bad it's still under copyright and having it here will probably see the Internet Archive go the way of divx Stage 6 and other services.

Like others have said it was nice to see a different type of team up between the two. Also enjoyed the short cameo by Savalas who always seems to play great characters. Downloaded the 490 mb mpeg4 and it played really well on my zune.

I know, my subject title is an oxymoron. This really is a great piece of horror film though. Decent performances, good costuming and an interesting 'monster'. Loved every second of it!

Horror Express is easily one of my all time favourite classic horror films. It has all the hallmarks of greatness. Firstly it stars 2 supremo horror actors, the late great Mr Peter Cushing and the equally brilliant Mr Christopher Lee. Secondly it has a story to die for including, a alien entity that is bought aboard the the Express train frozen in a "missing link" monster. (But frozen not for long!) An evil being that drains the memories of the living through simply staring and hypnotizing its prey, turning them into white eyed corpses. Mouth watering creature and camera effects, man this is one creepy entity. A finale that includes a horde of undead zombies amassing towards a trapped group of passengers on a speeding coal fired locomotive. And much, much more. Oh and lest we forget a strong supporting cast including Telly Savalas. Horror Express quite simply has some of the most memorable and genuinely chilling scenes and imagery of any horror film, period. An absolute horror classic. Don't miss this gem. I've seen it no less than 5 times since I first discovered it a few years back and it never ceases to feel fresh or pack the same powerful punch as the first viewing. This is a very rare feat.

As low-budget schlock theatre pictures go, this one hangs together surprisingly well. This was an excellent example of sets and miniatures being effectively recycled from a bigger budget picture. The slightly psychedelic cinematography and weird synthesizer music are artifacts of the era in which it was produced. Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee turn in credible performances and Telly Savalas is, well, Telly Savalas. Kept waiting for him to whip out a Tootsie Pop and say "Who loves ya, Baby!"

I watched this film when I was a kid dirung the 70's. It scared the hell out of me, and it still does. This used to be featured on "Fright Night Theater" then, and it still stands out in my memories. This was classic acting by the polular Perter Cushing and Christopher Lee. Let's not forget the exceptional work by Alberto de Mendoza as a Rasputinesc priest. I highly recommend this film as an absolute must for horror film buffs. Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, and Telly Savalas. What more can you ask for?
